Omnipilot is an AI copilot, everywhere in your OS. It autocompletes text in any app from Apple Notes to Gmail, and let's you generate text in any app on your Mac using context from the apps you recently used.
I didn't even know building this app would be possible when I got started.
Not just because I had barely ever written any Swift code (thanks GPT-4), but I didn't even know if the APIs existed on macOS for making a proper OS-level AI copilot. But here we are! Hell yea
ANyway, enough schtick!
Introducing Omnipilot - your AI copilot, seamlessly integrated into your OS. It’s not just an autocomplete tool, it’s an intelligent assistant that generates and suggests context-aware text in any app you use, from Apple Notes to Gmail.
Using the power of GPT-4, it can generate longer, in-context text like email replies, taking into account the apps you’ve recently used, or even summarise a slack conversation that just got soooooo long.
The big idea is to reduce the friction it takes to use GPT-4 (and whatever else @sama releases soon), so you don't need to copy and paste and laboriously give it context. Instead you can just use AI to accelerate whatever you have to do, anywhere, from responding to a LinkedIn DM, summarizing a Slack channel, or even generating code in Xcode. I find I use AI a lot more now that it has all the context it needs to be useful.
I've aimed to make it minimal yet powerful. Suggestions appear unobtrusively in the corner of your screen or of larger text-boxes, and you can refine and iterate them before choosing to paste them into your app.
Also Omnipilot understands the context you're working in. So, whether you’re editing a document or composing an email, it knows what to suggest.
Omnipilot is not just an AI - it’s your AI. It’s here to make your digital life easier, faster, and smarter.
This is amazing, @michaeljelly!
Omnipilot sounds like a game-changer for using AI in everyday tasks. No more switching between apps for context. Can't wait to try it out for coding.
Great work! 👏
This is insane. I didn't know it was possible to build such an intricately intimate OS-level AI companion. 10x better concept than any other out there. I've seen e.g. a Chrome Extension, but what about my local stuff? My terminal, notes, etc. no more copying to & from windows to get your context through to ChatGPT.
Can't wait to see this product grow and evolve, since it's already hooked into the OS, the primitives are there to make something truly mind blowing.
Also it reminds me of Clippy 📎
Congrats @michaeljelly 🎉
I like the "omnipresence" direction. Nice job, @michaeljelly. :)
But I have to ask: How do you manage security and/or privacy? I assume a lot of data is being sent to OpenAPI.
@rrhoover thanks!!! I'm glad you like it. Basically I do 0 logging of any data gathered on the device, I just pipe things through to OpenAI via a Cloudflare worker. It's as private as it can be while doing what it does.
Planning on adding a "use-your-own-key" mode and local or custom model support, but 6 months was long enough pre-launch and I figured I'd see what people are interested in!
Feel free to ping me any more qs here/twitter, or would be happy to chat irl/zoom
@simon_hilton Very reasonable feedback! I've architected it so that I don't store any data in the cloud for any of the autocompletions and in-context generations - only normal chats you have with GPT-4 are stored in Firebase.
I want to even make those stored locally, but haven't gotten round to it yet.
Totally get the concerns!
Great stuff Micheal! I love that you took a leap of faith before knowing if you could hook into the OSs text fields, and would love to know how! Good luck 🤞🏼
@nuno_ms_reis I use macOS and I only had a limited amount of time so I figured I'd start here. I'm planning to expand to Windows and Linux soon though!
